GETTING EARLIER "CANTS" ' There is an unanthentietaed tradition to the elfect that tee oVvi that bird of nocturnal habit, was the carnal e , lier bik It was not sufficient for the (ml that My n that call to breakfast of the robins, the a k he o mcl others of the feathered tribe should aibitumh &o em hiHe b gan to outwit the other birds by snooping 3 before light, as wasn't ear y ;enoigh fm any sensible bird to begin the day's activities Thus m roes tte fable, the owl came to low the moonless dark Ms ey s adapted themselves to the gloom; and eventual y his ocula? equipment enabling, he became strictly a night W The owl's tactics suggest latest methods of Imperial VaJ lev California, cantaloupe growers.Califoin a has aiwajs been lUed for' its early produce. One can be very earjr without half trying in California, so why should canta loupe growers tw to be earlier .' . , . The answer, of course, is that moving business reason expressed in four words to make more money. Iht Sens which ingenious Imperial Valley growers, planting in January, take to get earlier "cants" are as successful as thev are unique. . , , . mi, omnlwriHirino-the cantaloupe land in lire ".T '-p-o - - r1, (he great series of rows running east and west, ihe pro poses of the ridges are dual. They enable the power to irrigate the plants without washing them out, but much more than this, they adapt themselves to forcing measures The rows running east and west, it is practical to plant the seed half-way up a side facing the warm south This southern exposure means that the young plants get maxi mum benefit from the sunshine. It is an absolutely nec essary measure. Next the growers bring into use tneir cantaloupe caps These are circular devices made of waxed or oiled paper, and they are placed over the hills until the young plants are well up. They protect the plants in the event of ad verse temperatures. When it is safe to remove the caps, r,nt tv.mwn nwflv. Oh. no! The clever canta- loupe expert knows every kink of his business. He turns the caps back so that they protect the plants on the north side, while the soutnern exposure is sun presei veu. Among he Imperial Valley growers there is intense competition to get the edible "cants" on the big Eastern wrV0t at tVio pnn'psf: nnssihle date.That is whv such mehods as here described are used. They are a product of competition. Not all the cantaloupes grown are capped, on east and west rows, but a large percentage are in 1919, accord ing to a good authority, 8000 out of 13,000 acres. ii I ,if v(c WKt ir a x: MSHE5 NOTICK TO CKKIUTOIIS.

' - SWOPE & SW0PE, Attorneys, 1 tt When home merchants do not ver5se in their local papers, t have mighty poor excuse to kick find fault when Salem or Montgom Ward & Company fill the papers wi their announcements. The Erfte it solicit business on "charity sakt it solicit business on "chraity sake. but its advertising value is for sale and is the same as the merchants who sells goods off his shelves whether the customers is from Monmouth, In dependence, Portland or Salem it makes no difference. Our advertis ing space is for sale, (home mer chants preferred) but if the local mer chant cannot see the value of adver tising to him. and his business, why the other fellow more wide-a-wak has a perfect right to endeavor to sell his goods through this medium. Don't kick because he is after the trade, as he is only using the same business tactics you should, If youri trade is slipping away from you, yot snouid only cuss yourselt and not the poor editor who is slowing starv ing to death waiting for you to sup port him.
